Experimental density radiography of Wudalianchi volcano with cosmic ray muons [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Muon radiography is a promising technique to image the internal density structures upto a few hundred meters scale, such as tunnels, pyramids and volcanos, by measuring the flux attenuation of cosmic ray muons after trvaling through these targets. In this study, we conducted an experimantal cosmic ray muon radiography of the Wudalianchi volcano in ...

FMEA Based Risk Assessment of Component Failure Modes in Industrial Radiography [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Industrial radiography has its inimitable role in non-destructive examinations. Industrial radiography devices, consisting of significantly high activity of the radioisotopes, are operated manually by remotely held control unit. Malfunctioning of these devices may cause potential exposure to the operator and nearby public, and thus should be practiced ...

Automated diagnosis of pneumothorax using an ensemble of convolutional neural networks with multi-sized chest radiography images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Pneumothorax is a relatively common disease, but in some cases, it may be difficult to find with chest radiography. In this paper, we propose a novel method of detecting pneumothorax in chest radiography. We propose an ensemble model of identical convolutional neural networks (CNN) with three different sizes of radiography images.

Fast Neutron Resonance Radiography in a Pulsed Neutron Beam [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2003
The feasibility of performing fast neutron resonance radiography at the PTB accelerator facility is studied. A neutron beam of a broad spectral distribution is produced by a pulsed 13 MeV deuterium beam hitting a thick Be target. The potential of 3 different neutron imaging detectors with time-of flight capability are investigated.

Towards Seamless Integration of Magnetic Tracking into Fluoroscopy-guided Interventions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
The 2D projective nature of X-ray radiography presents significant limitations in fluoroscopy-guided interventions, particularly the loss of depth perception and prolonged radiation exposure. Integrating magnetic trackers into these workflows is promising; however, it remains challenging and under-explored in current research and practice.

Optimal particle type and projection number in multi-modality relative stopping power acquisition [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Proton radiography combined with X-ray computed tomography (CT) has been proposed to obtain a patient-specific calibration curve and reduce range uncertainties in cancer treatment with charged particles. The main aim of this study was to identify the optimal charged particle for the generation of the radiographies and to determine the optimal number of

Percutaneous retrieval of symptomatic bone cement embolus from the pulmonary artery

open access: yesAnnals of Vascular Surgery - Brief Reports and Innovations
Bone cement pulmonary embolism (CPE) is not a rare complication. Most cases are asymptomatic and detected incidentally. In this study, we reported a female patient who was suffering from hemoptysis. To address this condition, our clinical group performed

CURRENT LEVELS OF MEDICAL EXPOSURE IN RUSSIA

open access: yesРадиационная гигиена, 2015
We considered conditions of patients’ medical radiation exposure in Russian diagnostic radiology and nuclear medicine basing on the data of our own research, of the Unified system of individual dose control and of some relevant literature.
